    Hard Apple cider and double whiskey drink
    Mahealani K.

    Never been here and went with my partner for a jazz performer and had some drinks and some snacks! It was great. The food seemed high priced, but they were great! I don't know that I would buy food again, prob just go there for sown drinks and the show and then leave. It was great!

    Whether you are celebrating a special event, or simply taking out someone special, Jazz Alley does not disappoint! The ambience alone is work the price of admission! Couple that with the delicious food and great service... Makes the beautiful sounds the talented musicians are sharing, the icing on the cake. We had the pleasure of enjoying the soulful sounds of Marcus Miller, we will be back.

    Jazz Alley - Dinner & Live Jazz Experience I invited a close couple friend to Jazz Alley for a special evening, and overall it was a memorable night combining good food, wine, and live jazz. We started with a bottle of red wine (I don't recall the name), but it was a full-bodied red, rich and smooth--perfect for celebrating and paired beautifully with the Aegean Meze Platter. For dinner, we ordered: Vegetable Lasagna Fresh Petrale Sole Parmesan Cremini Mushroom Risotto Arcadian Greens Salad Two Caesar Salads The main dishes were solid and satisfying, especially the Petrale Sole and the risotto. The salads, however, were a bit underwhelming for the price. The venue itself is quite dark--so dark that we needed our phone lights to read the menu. While this adds to the classic jazz club ambiance, it's something to be aware of. Our food and drinks came to a little over $400 for four people, and on top of that, we had pre-purchased live show tickets for $200, bringing the total to around $600 + for the evening. It's definitely a splurge, but if you're looking for a special night out with live jazz, good food, and a celebratory atmosphere, Jazz Alley delivers the full experience.

    We haven't been here for a good many years essentially because we don't get to Seattle like we once did. Well, I am regretting having missed some great service, great food and beverages not to mention the live music. It's amazing how this venue can do two dinner shows in an evening! That's seating guests, taking food and beverage orders, serving and the clean up and do it again! Simply incredible. Don't think it's Jazz music only because you might be surprised. We saw Elvin Bishop and the Big Fun Trio playing some classic blues and modern renditions. Lastly, I was delighted to see a large and diverse crowd of younger folks enjoying a great show in a classic and classy venue. I was expecting to see the place filled with us grey hairs! It's a feel good evening and I highly recommend that you take advantage of it.

    The venue is always a fun hang for the music. Unfortunately, the food is often somewhat of a miss. It's ok but nothing special. Their "famous" lasagna is somewhat flat in taste, the Mezze platter is dissapointing and overpriced. The Veggie Samosas (new item Nov 25) are in wonton wrappers, deep fried and barely have any filling. To call them a samosa is an insult culturaly to their homeland. The beef stew was hamburger fried up and dropped into an overly salty tomato broth - not sure how that constitues a stew? The drinks are short poured... the list goes on. It doesn't change that the staff is always friendly, it's got a great vibe and the venue is a blast for a show. Just know this isn't a fine dining venue and you're better off grabbing dinner elsewhere and ordering some wine and a dessert at this venue for the show!

    Go for the music not the good! Service, ambiance and music were fantastic, & food not so much. I was there for Madeleine Peyroux

    Our view, the Stylistics
    Arizona P.

    I did go to Jazz Alley for the Stylistics show. The show was amazing and the food was good. Staff were great. My disappointment was in the table we chose... .we were in the balcony, head on... which meant the booth was placed the short way, and we had to sit facing the table with our heads turned to see the stage. Our necks did protest. We had. It setup there before, so we did not know....now we do.

    This place is an unbelievable jazz bar in Seattle. Definitely a hidden gem. The prices are reasonable. They have fantastic performers come through. The service and ambiance are amazing. The food and drink options are solid. If you are a fan of jazz, I would absolutely recommend you check this place out!

    Seared Seafood Brochette
    Lanessa S.

    My experience at Jazz Alley was amazing! Everyone is super nice and welcoming, my server was very attentive and always checking up on me. I picked up a last minute ticket for the Spinners and was afraid that my seat wouldn't grant me the best experience, due to getting one of the last seats off to the side. But I was proven wrong! Sounds from the performance were great and I had a good view. The drinks were strong, but very good! The seafood brochette was delicious also. I'll be back!

    Went to see Vincent Ingala and what a fabulous show he performed. Love JA for the quaint ambience and shows. Dinner and drinks were delicious, I had a wedge salad and halibut. Halibut was fresh and done to perfection, asparagus was tender and tasty along with the crispy potato croquettes! Great night!

    We were in Seattle, WA visiting our son over the Christmas Holidays! Son got us tickets to see Kenny G at this Jazz Club! It said doors opened at 9:15 pm, but it was more like way after 9:30 pm. It was sooo cold outside, son gave me his jacket too. I was freezing. When we finally were seated, cocktails arrived really fast, which was great. Drinks flowed nicely all night, FANTASTIC SERVICE!! You can also order dinner, but we ate across the street earlier.. It was a fantastic show that Kenny G put on. Awesome music.. We loved the drummer too. When it was over, we headed to the back to buy some fun stuff. I bought an album and they gave me a nice drink tumbler. Our son Jordan bought a brand new SAXOPHONE that Kenny G had made for $1650, it is gorgeous ! Pictures all around.... fun night on our last night in WA!

    Beautiful experience - we were visiting over the weekend, from Montreal, Canada and jazz is quite popular here, we do have a world class festival that runs every summer, however I never experienced anything quite like Jazz Alley. A friend booked tickets for us on Saturday April 19, 2025. The headliner was jazz singer/songwriter and guitarist Madeleine Peyroux. We had no idea what to expect and were blown away on all levels. We arrived around 6:30PM, were seated in a nice banquet close to the stage. Our group of 4 ordered various appetizers like the corn bread, calamari and antipasto platter. These were delicious, along with fruity cocktails. Our main meals were salmon, risotto, chicken piccata. Everything was served so promptly, presentation, flavors and portion were on point. I tasted both the fresh king salmon and chicken and they were equally tender, well marinated and just bursting with flavor. Once we were about done eating, that's when the show started. I was moved by the performance and Madeleine's beautiful vocals. She opened each song with a popular quote - this was poetic and added reflection to each message she was delivering through her music. Her style was varied and the crowd was lively. It looked like everyone enjoyed themselves. I was bobbing my head and tapping my feet the whole time. It was a memorable night, the combination of food and show is just so much fun. Strongly recommend Jazz Alley if you enjoy livve music, are open to dicovering new artists and just want a great meal combined with entertainement.

    Any room to dance?

    Good day: I've visited Dimitriou's Jazz Alley from time to time since the late 1980's or early… 

    How loud is the music? Do I need to bring ear plugs?

    NOPE!! PLUS U HAVE PLENTY OF OPTIONS ON WHERE U WOULD LIKE TO BE SEATED

    Do they have live music on Tuesdays? Thanks!

    Generally speaking, artists/bands perform Thursday - Sunday (with one show on the first and last day and 2 shows Fri/Sat). Sometimes, they have a Tuesday-Wednesday concert (seldom).

    Do you have to make a reservation?

    Not necessarily! For most shows, we are able to offer walk-ins on a first come, first serve basis and we would provide the best seat we have available. BUT for sold out shows, we may not be able to accept any walk-ins.… 

    Are you closed April 28 and 29th? Coming in town would like to try your place. But there's nothing on the Calendar.Thanks

    Hello! We will have a performance on April 28 that we will be announcing shortly so keep your eye out!

We were served appetizers and drinks before the show. The coconut shrimp were fantastic, and large.

I was impressed by the caliber of entertainment. The announcer brought so much energy and humor, and brought in the crowd in just the right ways. The dancers were fantastic; basically the entire 3 hours was choreographed down to each step. My favorite number was the mermaid and sailor one. The singers were also good.

Definitely an interesting spot to hit if you're staying in the pikes place area. I'm sure it's fun to see a show too.

Staff who work at Benaroya are always friendly and helpful. From ticket takers, door greeter, even the ones selling you snacks and drinks. Only negative I have to say about this place, is if you're selling us three dollar cups to bring inside auditorium, then add cup holders to your seats so we don't have to carry the cup the entire concert. I refuse to place my cup on the floor.

I've seen several other shows, and I left just breathless about how they continue to be one of the most talented burlesque troops that I've ever gotten to see.

Unlike other burlesque groups/theatres that directly compete with them, they really go an extra mile to play with the many different ways people can be sexy. Theatres they tend to play out of: Broadway Performance Hall, Triple Door, and I'm sure many others! I'm excited to see many of these talented performers in the Moisture Festival in March!

It also pleases me that shows like this can hold sold out performances all over the country. I was so excited when I moved to Seattle to hear that the cabaret scene was alive and well. And one of the top groups I heard of was The Atomic Bombshells. The only problem was that they were off traveling the country and I kept missing their shows in Seattle. I finally got to see them with a group of friends and was most impressed. First off, they have a gorgeous group of women with a variety of body types and charms. They take their time on beautiful costumes and very entertaining routines. You can tell some of them are professionally trained and talented. And those that don't excel as well in traditional dance make up for it with va-va-va-voom. While they may not rank up there with the world famous cabarets, like the Crazy Horse or Moulin Rouge, they do stay honest to their craft with campy acts and some seriously talented tassel twirling. I would highly suggest them for a romantic night out, a fun time with friends, or a perfect stress release for a hard week. So cool that they hang around to talk afterwards and even came over to thank us for showing up. Classy ladies.
